Video of expert practitioners simulating the same board meeting

When learners have finished their Dream Weaver board simulation, their professor will give them a code to access a video below showing experienced practitioners of corporate governance conducting their own simulated board meeting using exactly the same agenda packet.

This experienced practitioners video allows learners who have just gone through their own simulation experience to compare what they and their fellow simulation participants did with what the experienced practitioners did in the very same situation.

The experienced practitioners video below is password-protected. If you’re a learner, then your professor or trainer can give you your password. If you’re a professor or trainer, then please contact us to get a password.
